Boom--!

Various corals sprouted from Fubuki Shiro's body, gradually covering his white hair and delicate face, until Yagura smashed them with a single blow, leaving only half of his face, a bright eye, slowly sinking into the lake.
"Hehehe, Kirigakure taken care of."
Obito wiped away his cold sweat and slowly walked to Yagura's side. This was really difficult; Yagura's abilities were truly troublesome.
But from now on, it will depend on his abilities.
Using the Sharingan's Genjutsu, he finally gained complete control over Yagura.
As expected.
The Mangekyo Sharingan's ability was originally intended to paralyze Yagura's abilities; his Genjutsu abilities were his true trump card.
Following Madara Uchiha's guidance, Obito also learned that the real trump card is never just a seemingly troublesome ability; rather, it's simply an ordinary tactic.
"Wow! To be able to defeat the Mizukage in such a short time, it seems your talent is no less than that of Uchiha Goenji!"
The White Zetsu attached to him made a teasing sound.
Obito slowly raised his head, his eyes looking towards Konoha: "Thanks to your abilities, otherwise even with the Mangekyō Sharingan, I wouldn't have been able to defeat Yagura."
He knew that his abilities were still somewhat inferior to those of the Five Kage. If it weren't for the White Zetsu's abilities and Madara Uchiha's modifications to his body, even if he used the Mangekyo Sharingan to the point of blindness, he still wouldn't have been able to defeat Yagura.
But there are no "what ifs" for ninjas.
A win is a win.
"Let's go. First, let's stabilize Kirigakure, then find the Rinnegan user and carry out the next part of the plan."
Obito slowly turned around and led Yagura towards Kirigakure. As for the bodies behind them, there were none, because they had all sunk to the bottom of the lake.
Da da--!
The figure gradually disappeared, leaving only the ravaged battlefield.
Slowly, under the influence of nature, it gradually returned to its original state.
Whoosh--!
With nothing else to do, Goenji noticed Guy and his group's movements and, naturally, became curious. He followed them to see if, as he suspected, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist were indeed planning to attack Konoha.
Kai and his team's mission location was very close to Konoha.
In a nearby town, they quickly completed the mission.
This is how things gradually recover after the aftermath of the war.
There are also many more missions available in the vicinity.
Many ninjas like Might Guy are currently busy with missions to restore Konoha's prosperity.
As Might Guy and the others walked back to the village, Goenji watched listlessly, but didn't notice anything unusual. It seemed he was overthinking things; they probably wouldn't encounter anything like this at a time like this.
Only...
He was quickly proven wrong.
Just as they were only a few kilometers away from Konoha, seven people appeared on Might Guy's path, seemingly taking a rest, Forehead Protector Might Guy.
Their faces all showed cruelty.
"This is..."
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!
The moment Genma Shiranui and the others saw these people, the information immediately came to mind, especially the weapons they carried, which were extremely obvious.
Cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
Might Guy, who was originally full of enthusiasm, was now trembling with fear, Ebisu and Genma both felt despair.
These are the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. Even if their teacher, Chōza Akimichi, were present, he wouldn't be a match for the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Kirigakure. Let alone the three of them who haven't even grown up yet!
"Damn it, what are the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist doing here?"
"It's over."
"I'm not married yet!"
"Run!"
The three reacted quickly; after their initial shock, they tried to escape.
Bang--!
Munashi Jinpachi waved his Exploding Blade Shibuki, directly destroying their retreat with a series of booming sounds, forcing them to stop and stare at them in fear.
Munashi Jinpachi, carrying the Exploding Blade Shibuki, said, "So, it's a brat from Konoha. Looks like you just returned from a mission. What bad luck to run into us. Since we've found you, you'd better hand over the information about Konoha obediently."
"Don't even think about it!" Might Guy mustered his courage and shouted.
"Oh, you've got guts, kid from Konoha." Another Raiga Kurosuki looked at them arrogantly.
The hilts of two knives were visible on his back.
The others sneered, "Let's capture them. We don't have much time. If Konoha finds out, we won't achieve our attack objective."
In the distance, Goenji saw them, and a smile gradually crept onto his lips.
If it really happens, will Might Duy reappear? Probably not. Even if he does, he won't let Might Duy die; it would be pointless.
And coincidentally, although he had spent most of the past few months researching Sealing Technique and calculating data that the Fire Fire Ten Trillion Dead Grand Funeral Array might have missed,
In his spare time, he actually developed a cool Fire Release that he can use right now. This is the first Ninjutsu he developed for both power and style.
After seeing Shisui's Susanoo, he envied others for having the Mangekyō Sharingan and being able to use such cool skills. In addition, he thought Susanoo were very cool in his previous life, so in his spare time he developed a similar ability, Ninjutsu that was not Susanoo, but was no weaker in attack.
Being handsome is a lifelong thing.
So he watched the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist from the shadows, a smirk playing on his lips.
Facing seven people, all elites from Kirigakure, he couldn't possibly take them all down, but if he played his part well, eliminating a few shouldn't be a problem.
His previous Munashi Jinpachi's abilities made him realize that the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist were indeed quite formidable.
In the Konoha.
While doing his mission, Might Duy suddenly felt a jolt in his heart. He stopped farming, and with a bad feeling, he headed in one direction, rushing out of the farmland with a 'whoosh,' amidst the exclamations of others.
"Hey, you haven't finished your mission yet!"
Might Duy was no longer paying attention to the farmer's employer's voice; all he felt now was to go faster, faster. In an instant, with a 'boom,' his Chakra condensed and broke through a barrier in his Chakra meridian, causing his speed to surge.
Whoosh--!
"Kai, please don't get hurt!"
That feeling, which never came, guided Dai in the right direction.
The people in Konoha were completely bewildered by the sudden gust of wind, wondering if they were hallucinating.
Meanwhile, the Konoha Police Force saw someone using Ninjutsu within the village, and even on the main street, which appeared to be Might Duy fleeing.
Thinking they had encountered spies infiltrating Konoha, they quickly gave chase.
"Quick, after them! They must be a spy who has been discovered."
Whoosh--!
In an instant, the security team gave a signal, and a squad quickly followed. However, they were no match for Might Duy's speed and could only follow the tracks on the ground to catch up.
